[QUOTE="ShiftyThePirate, post: 14271934, member: 163467"] ONLY purpose of the Boss is for track. It has less tq but higher HP than the 5.0 GT, and has strut-bars and everything, the Laguna Seca one is even crazier, but regardless, both are aiming to tackle the M///, and all Boss's are striped down, even the fog lights are fake and you can't even get a proper nav with them if I require. The one I drove didn't even had back-seats, just had bars. To me a 302, well, the real one (even the non laguna has no nav\etc), Laguna Seca, is like the Z\28 Camaro, no one would want to drive it unless they had A. No kids, B. did not have to haul anything\carry anything, and C. Do not care about comfort. If you want flat out speed, ZL1 over the Z\28 any day, and the Boss, well the Boss is old news as literally all of that is being implemented into the newer GT as I hear. Aside from the exhaust. Around a track a 2010-2012 Shelby would catch catch up and pass a Boss 302 with ease, but on turns, I think that is where the Boss would, though drastically less powerful, would beat it. Straight line is def not what the Boss is made for, I always hear about Boss owners hitting 9k RPM wise which is just crazy, but that's the 5.0. Pulls hard after it gets going, def not a torque motor, and torque is fun. [/QUOTE]
